"Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free." - President Ronald Reagan

Thank you Mexicans!
Texas is booming. Texas is the second largest economy in the US. We are grateful that Mexicans are spending their money here:
"According to the Greater Houston Convention and Visitors Bureau, Mexican tourists spend an average of $96 a day in the Bayou City and nearly half of the 1.8 million Mexicans who travel to Texas for leisure and business every year stop in Houston." (The Woodlands is a hot spot for wealthy Mexicans)
Of course, that's only Houston. My guess is that there are big numbers for Dallas or San Antonio.
I like this:
"Wealthy Mexican shoppers spend as much as $1,000 at the store, he said, and "everything that's the latest — that's what they go for."
Thank you Mexicans. Thank you for paying taxes in Texas!
